Ed, as always, thank you, my friend, for being bluntly honest about our situation here in the US. (and around the world) My hubby and I are starting Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University tonight at our church in the hopes that when it all comes crashing down, we'll at least not be out on the street with the kids and will be able to have a roof over our heads and , as we are growing a garden at my moms, some food to eat...ya know?

Thank you, Ed, your articles are always encouraging LOL I will take the truth over the lies any day.

"We will take the actions necessary to ensure stability and continued economic recovery," Ben Bernanke said he will fix this problem. People actually believe this liar? I guess when you have no hope you will believe just about anything.

Thank you guys. I honestly feel like a doom and gloomer sometimes, but this debt thing is really serious. Everytime I think I'll give you readers a break with some fluffy stuff, the news sources look like they're simply whistling past the grave yard and skipping the important stuff.
